We're dividing 24661628 by 987 
We're looking to find how many times 987 goes into 24661628.

Moving on to step 1:
If we divide 2 by 987, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 2 and we're left with 2.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 24 / 987

Advancing to step 2:
If we divide 24 by 987, we get 0 and a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 0 from 24.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 24, then carry on: 246 / 987

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 987 fits into 246 0 times, leaving a remainder of 246.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 246 and we're left with 246.
Fetch the next digit (6) from the dividend, attach it to 246 and continue: 2466 / 987

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 987 fits into 2466 2 times, leaving a remainder of 492.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtracting 1974 from 2466 leaves us with 492.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 492, then carry on: 4921 / 987

Advancing to step 5:
4921 divided by 987 is 4 with a remainder of 973.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24.0
The remainder is 973 after subtracting 3948 from 4921.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 973 and continue with: 9736 / 987

On to step 6:
9736 divided by 987 is 9 with a remainder of 853.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 249.0
If we take 8883 away from 9736, we end up with 853.
Take the next digit (2) from the dividend and append it to 853, then repeat: 8532 / 987

Let's proceed to step 7:
The number 987 fits into 8532 8 times, leaving a remainder of 636.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 2498.0
If we take 7896 away from 8532, we end up with 636.
Fetch the next digit (8) from the dividend, attach it to 636 and continue: 6368 / 987

Going ahead to step 8:
987 can be fit into 6368 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 446.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24986.0
If we take 5922 away from 6368, we end up with 446.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4460, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
When dividing 4460 by 987, we get 4 with a remainder of 512.
Record the quotient 4 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 24986.4
The remainder is 512 after subtracting 3948 from 4460.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5120, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
The number 987 fits into 5120 5 times, leaving a remainder of 185.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 24986.45
If we subtract 4935 from 5120, we get 185.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1850, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 1850 by 987, we get 1 with a remainder of 863.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24986.451
The remainder is 863 after subtracting 987 from 1850.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 8630, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
987 goes into 8630 8 times with a remainder of 734.
The next digit of our result is 8. 
Result so far: 24986.4518
The remainder is 734 after subtracting 7896 from 8630.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7340, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
987 goes into 7340 7 times with a remainder of 431.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 24986.45187
Subtract 6909 from 7340 to get 431.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4310, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
4310 divided by 987 is 4 with a remainder of 362.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24986.451874
If we take 3948 away from 4310, we end up with 362.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3620, and continue the process.

Step 15:
When dividing 3620 by 987, we get 3 with a remainder of 659.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24986.4518743
Subtract 2961 from 3620 to get 659.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6590, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 16:
The number 987 fits into 6590 6 times, leaving a remainder of 668.
Use 6 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 24986.45187436
If we take 5922 away from 6590, we end up with 668.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6680, and continue the process.

Our division results in 24986.45187436 with a remaining 6.68e-07.
